“AI can bring together data from projects, performance, and collaboration to reveal connections humans would miss.”
Steve Dempsey Head of People, Aquent and Skill
Artificial intelligence represents the first transformative disruption in hiring, breaking from decades of incremental technological change that left the recruiting model largely unchanged. That's the premise of an article in HR Daily Advisor by Steve Dempsey, Head of People at Aquent and Skill. In his piece, Dempsey writes that traditional recruiting has remained a linear, labor-intensive process in which costs scale directly with hiring demand, despite the introduction of tools like job boards and digital resumes. He explains that AI has the potential to fundamentally reshape this model by enabling more scalable, data-driven hiring that reduces reliance on human bandwidth and allows organizations to move beyond one-role-at-a-time recruiting. The article positions AI as a pivotal inflection point for the HR industry, capable of redefining how companies identify, evaluate, and secure talent.
